Irlam & Cadishead College started life as Irlam and Cadishead High School but in  2011 this school was closed and knocked down and its pupils and staff moved next door to a new building.   The new £24m school, built with Private Finance Initiative cash as part of the Building Schools for the Future programme, was renamed Irlam and Cadishead College. The school  benefits from a variety of modern learning spaces, outdoor classrooms, a new sports hall, gym and a flood-lit all-weather pitch. Budding performers have a new music technology suite, performance hall and dance and drama workshops to support their development.
